About the Author:
James Walton is the television critic for the Daily Telegraph and has been the writer and presenter of Radio 4's books quiz, The Write Stuff since 1998. (Sadly, his Radio 4 pop quiz All the Way from Memphis didn't last quite as long.) His first book was The Faber Book of Smoking, which was published to great critical acclaim back in the far-off days when you could still smoke in pubs.
Review:
'A marvellously addictive, reach-for-the-fags anthology. It veers effortlessly between the howlingly funny and the grimly compelling.' India Knight, Sunday Times; 'On inhalation it's as intoxicating as its subject matter. Neither didactic in argument nor too loose in construction, it offers a wealth of material... Ultimately what sets this collection apart from many others is its passion.' Financial Times
